[Mono-list] NullReferenceException while using gmcs 1.2.6.0 and -langversion:linq

[Dan Shryock]

I ran into a NullReferenceException using the latest gmcs on the
following piece of code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class gmcsnre{

	public static void Main(string[] args){
		var dict = Dict<object>(Id => 1,Name => "User",Email => "user at example.com");
		foreach(var item in dict){
			Console.WriteLine(item.Key +" => "+item.Value);
		}
	}

	public static Dictionary<string, T> Dict<T>(params Func<string, T>[] args){
		var items = new Dictionary<string, T>();
		foreach(var func in args){
			var item = func(null);
			items.Add(func.Method.GetParameters()[0].Name, item);
		}
		return items;
	}
}

If I change the line at "var dict = ..." to be the following, I don't
receive the error.
var dict = Dict<object>(new Func<string,object>[]{Id => 1,Name =>
"User",Email => "user at example.com"});

This may have been fixed in svn, but I don't have the opportunity to
test it at the moment.  This isn't a big deal for me, I just wanted to
report it in case it was not yet known.

Using "gmcs -langversion:linq gmcsnre.cs" as my command line, the
error I am receiving is below:

Exception caught by the compiler while compiling:
